Theos,

how did you manage that? I am under the impression that a network card is 
required to fully install Gentoo (to fetch the additional packages from the 
net). My 1.4rc1 CD does not seem to contain _any_ support for PCMCIA network 
cards. Does you laptop have a built-in network card instead?

Very curious,
  Andreas
